- James O'Brien and Nick Ferrari callers try to figure out why Rishi Sunak called the General Election 'early'.
After months of speculation, Rishi Sunak has called a General Election that many expect Labour to win.
Speaking on the steps of Downing Street, a drenched Rishi Sunak vowed he "will never leave the people of this country to face the darkest of days alone".
Mr Sunak declared it "the moment for Britain to choose its future" and said the election will take place at time "when the world is more dangerous than it has been since the end of the Cold War".

8 minutes in, the caller said "Labour like to spend lots and lots of money", without being challenged,
This current Tory government have nearly quadrupled the national debt in 14 years.
Highest debt, highest taxes. History rhymes. Tories are never the financial grown ups they pretend to be.
Not all debt was unavoidable due to the pandemic. Debit started with Gordon Brown and carried on by Osborn. It was was called printing money.
Exactly. That caller couldn’t distinguish between money spent on the country & money given to their mates.
@@basher5013 National debt started with Gordon Brown? I think you'll find that it started with the advent of the Bank of England 300 years ago!
They are not in a position for accusations against any party . 😂😂😂
Christ Almighty, Ferrari is OFFENSIVELY thick!
We all knew that! 😂😅
Conveniently thick!😅
Perfomatively thick.
Professionally thick.
Incurably thick.
He can't even manage food, ffs
It is hard to see any signs of effort or intelligence
Paul the caller and Nick Ferrari is a presentation of what’s everything wrong with the UK.
This Ferrari guy is embarrassing
He's a torie what do you expect
Did you hear his feet squelching as he walking back in, what a tool.
Nobody is voting for Cons. I predict the worst performance ever for the Conservative party.
I'd like to agree but there are a lot of shy tories out there. They'd vote tory no matter what damage they do to the country.
Nige will be he's a Tory boy through and through
My dad's a lifelong tory. He can't imagine ever voting for anyone else.
So this election he simply won't be voting. And maybe never again.
Umbrellas are woke anyway. The man who claims to have common sense doesnt put press conference inside during rain storm
Umbrellas are woke? 😂
@@Discombobulate453Just ask any Wetherspoons warrior brexiteer.
Why didn't he use the media room Johnson had put in
@@elizabethbeattie6488why did he use the press facility that Johnson spent a lot of money on you mean? (Copying the USA of course!) 🥴🇬🇧
Exactly 💪💪💪💯
"Man up and get wet" - or use the £2.6m media room they set up? Classic Tories, couldn't even plan a press event never mind a p-up in a brewery.
"Colourful characters" chuckled Ferrarri fondly.
As he referrered to racism displayed by election candidates.
Farrari you require professional mental health care.
Thousands have died entirely due to Tory policies.
😂😂😂
How anyone can still support or put their faith in Sunak and his cronies is shocking.
You'll vote Labour like an idiot but can't give 1 solid reason why you should, outside of "it gets rid of the Tories."
Give Reform a chance.
@@lyndagore1029
Here’s your chance to inform us all of Reform’s policies. Ready to start?
@@lyndagore1029what are their policies and costings?
@@Dynasty1818🤡😂 14 years and you’re still deluding yourself 😂
What about holding the press conference in the multi million pound press briefing room that was built during covid? No rain and no music lol
Get the tories out
Was his suit waterproof the rain seem to glow and stay on him, and the music drowned out most of his words,it was a masterclass of how to disrupt a speech by the regular Brexit campaigner who is outside most days shouting outside parliament gardens to get there at short notice
over the last 14 years of Tories, Carol Voderman worked out that they spent approx 5000 days, £375 million per day. Worked out from the national debt. That's unbelievable.
In case you haven't worked it out yet ferrari is a tory
One caller was an absolute joke. 😂
Was it "Nigel", I bet it was...
There's been a pandemic, a war and this and that...
Tired of hearing this excuse, like we have ever had a period without poverty, war and disease across the world.
Pathetic excuse.
Most of the issues we are facing are inflicted on purpose by the TORIES on us all.
Best comment 👌
Ferrari by name, HGV by nature
HGV stuck in the Dover Brexit lorry queue.
Clapped out Austin Allegro at this stage.
aaaarrrrrhhh look at me im a hard man getting wet in rain...who would've thunk rain and no umbrella means youre gonna get f**king wet
Rushi, wants a holiday and to spend his £150 k annual pension...he cares about HIMSELF
Sunak is a very wealthy multimillionaire. Most of his wealth is in assets that will almost certainly be appreciated each year. So he makes millions each year without spending or lifting a finger. That's why people like Bernie Sanders & AOC say to tax the wealthy multimillionaires & billionaires otherwise their assets keep growing in value, earning them millions in untaxed income each year.
Why does it always rain on me ⚡ is it because i'v lied since i was Seventeen 😩
I always thought that Sunak was half soaked.
At least of a drip
Wally without a brolly?
Fishy Wishy Risky Rishy will have many admirers until his Honours List comes out.Raab Shapps and Dowden will have brown noses for the next six weeks.
I hear Putin is getting one for his contributions to brexit.
Taxes *pay for things* folks
Get it together - lower taxes mean *things don’t get paid for*
Right now taxes are high and things aren’t getting paid for
@@BenGuardianthen ask where the Tories have put all the money. Clue, look at their bank accounts.
@@petrovonoccymro9063 spot on.
Look at potholes on the roads, look at the queues at the NHS, look at the delays when making any application -> our taxes are not being efficiently used and all levels of Government are disorganised and need reform!
@@petrovonoccymro9063 I agree I’m just saying the inference of the original comment isn’t necessarily true
What a very, very strange caller. Nick spaffed under the desk.
And worst than that been responsible for the premature Deaths. of 30 odd thousand of our Elderly which so many have,already Conveniently forgotten already and the On going Suffering of Millions .Lizzie Stevens .
Well said 👌
Low tax, small government & tough on crime?
To be tough on crime, you need more police and equipment. To pay for it, you need to tax more. All this makes the government bigger.
Classic.
Low tax on poor and middle class
Re: the flights to Rwanda (which will never happen). I would like the public to advise ALL asylum seekers this message: IF you find yourself on a Plane, destined for darkest Africa...SIMPLY SCREAM you will open the door during the flight! The Captain will then NOT take off with that asylum seeker on board! He legally can't take off with a threat on board!
If Labour win Rwanda is toast anyway.
Bring back Jeremy corban
❤❤❤❤❤
Who?
Never heard of him
Rishi’s legacy I was the UK’s second worst PM after the woman who couldn’t outlast a lettuce.😂😂
Britain is in big trouble and he wants out before the whole mess comes crumbling down!
Rishi ''The Plan'' Sunak - 🌧☂
Where do bad folks go when they die?
They join the tory party

GB NEWS.
He get's wet but his hair looks dry. How does that work?
Because he rains over us.
Brillcream...!!!
@@royboy565 I might try that one at the pub tonight.
Haha nothing to do with tories getting inflation down , some muppets on here 😂😂😂
Looks like sunak dosen't like dry cleaning...
No chance of the supremely healthy over fed Ferrari ever apologising for saying that the smart people that declined the known deadly experimental poison should be fined £1000
Why didn't Sunak just announce the Election inside?
Johnson couldn't teach him how to open one.
and Brexit mate!
The elephant in the room
@@joannelewis3390 the chav vote
What about the press room they spent all that money on.
This is the level of LBC and it’s followers
He Ramboed it!!!! lol
British DECLINE is gradual, but constant and consistent, by the time your kids have grown up it is completelly different country in negative sense, there is no stopping of this decline in sight
What is in decline is your spelling , grammar and use of English I would suggest .. “Consistent”, “completely”, “sense” .,, to begin with ..
Is this what they used to mean by Tory 'wets'?
He finally delivered.
Put your money on a Hung parliament with Labour the biggest party
Build a little platform for him!
Zero seats
Illiterate Paul and Humpty Dumpty Ferrari having a lark.
Have Danny Kruger replace Rishi Sunak instead or have miriam cates as leader 💯
He wasnt aloud to stay inside . Not allowed once he asked the king to parogue parliament .
allowed !
Prorogue I think you meant ?
7:08 It's easy, you come out with a brolly and make a quick joke about british weather and get on with the announcement
or you could come out with long droll speech and when you're finish head back in like a drowned rat
How "fat" is Nick Ferrari?
Reform uk!!!
Labour will, don’t worry.
Pray tell what Reform policies are and what the costings will be?
Politics these days... its NOT about being RIGHT, and it's NOT about being WRONG.... these days ITS ALL ABOUT getting people to think "MAYBE"... "maybe" doesn't have to prove itself, "maybe" doesn't need track record, "maybe" can also avoid smear and corruption... so the politicians JUST WANT the word "MAYBE" to enter the publics head,... that's ALL THEY NEED FOR A VOTE!
Maybe!
😂@@royboy565
"man up". Thanks for the passive aggressive sexist stereotype.
Nevermind immigration we havent enough homes for our own, id sooner see more homes for the people, less homeless on the streets cause it looks tacky, lower taxes and higher work income, and force private companies to lower their prices, like water and bis companies, it cost over half of your first hours wages for travel to work and back everyday, make more incentives
Govts can't tell private companies what to charge unless they bring in price regulations which would destabilise the markets worse than Truss did.
@@royboy565destabilise what markets? And if the market can’t be stable without price gouging the public then that market is broken
@@MMCMYou obviously don't know how the stock markets work and in particular the money markets. Any sign of regulation or unfunded tax cuts(Truss) can cause turmoil.Truss's little adventure cost us billions.
@@royboy565 did I deny that? Or did I suggest that if those markets don’t serve the people, the people shouldn’t care?
@@MMCMCare or not, the markets are the same the world over.
7:27 Really? Clueless.
I agree. He's clueless.
Labour Tory duology at the top doesn’t work meet new boss same as the old
Socialism does not work but it will amuse me seeing what will unravel under Labour.
Because the tories way has worked over the last 14 years hasn't it?
Labour are not proposing socialism whatever starmer is expelling them all haven’t you been playing attention
Yes we're going to miss the fantastic brilliantly functional Tories
If he had an umbrella, the media hacks would have kept digging to find something to mock him about the umbrella.
No, they would have responded to what he said. That's why Sunak is politically tone-deaf - he can't work these things out. He's constantly doing things that work against him and his appalling party.
He's bright enough to have made a lot of money out of you throughout his working life, and maybe bright enough to make you want to pay him even more, but not bright enough to understand how to present himself so that he gets listened to.
Fact is Sunak is politically naive.
I bet Keir Starmer will do a much better job (sarcasm). Better than how he handled the CPS while all that grooming was going on it is to be hoped.
@royboy565 If you say so. Is that a JOB quote?
@@charlesjohnston8161Starmer transformed the CPS so much so that the P M at the time, David Cameron congratulated him and even the right wing rag the Sun, had a column praising the work he did. What you obviously fail to understand is a successful prosecution needs evidence to bring about a result. The police provide or don't provide the evidence.
Labour will privatise the NHS!
Thanks for your opinion. In the absence of any evidence, you might as well have said the opposite.
PFI.
Labour will renationalise water companies and stop the dumping of raw sewage.
Starmer rolled back on that pledge last I checked.
The London Labour echo chamber at LBC is always a laugh!
Really? Ferrari is as blue as it gets.
@@mj-gb6trthat explains it.😂
@@mj-gb6tr Don't look the troll in the eyes.
As opposed to the Tory echo chamber at LBC.
Labour get one term !! Crime will rise wait and see...
Based on what?
It's hi right now, can you please remind me who has cut police budget and who's in government in last 14 years?
@@mwd331 Based on the oracle Vincent Black
It can't get any worse
It has already risen Vince. Where have you been for the last 14 years?
Better Sunak than Starmer .. then the country has really gone to the dogs
in what way?
The country hasn't just gone to the dogs under this lot but even the kennels have gone.
They keep stamping on your head, and you keep asking for more.
Try to think of anything that's improved in the last fourteen years. Labour genuinely are planning to get the country back on track. The Tories can't believe you'll support them to do the final bits of asset-stripping before there's nothing left.
Absolute horse....
Hmmmmm an incredibly rich man married to a billionaire that avoids paying taxes and was never elected, or a man that was knighted for his services to his country and has never been involved in a legitimate scandal? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
I hate Labout but hope they win so the thick British Public can experience life under a Labout Government and stop whinging about the Tories or ConSocialist Paty - CONLIBLAB UNI PARTY. (who I hate as well).
😂 mental comment
You hate. Enough said
